Library Takes Comments from the Public
The Galesburg Public Library Thursday night held a focus group open for the community to attend.

Attendance was small with only five or six participants, but Lee Logan, the consultant hired for the job said just a few voices add up quickly because one person represents five more in the community.

"So you're thinking not many dots, not many bodies,...oh well there's 120 people here tonight, 120 people in this room, that's why this works."

That's to say nothing of the 25 or more people who were invited to the first focus group last weekend.

The purpose is to gather ideas for the library's strategic plan that will be put together.

Participants offered a number of successes the library has already accomplished and gave ideas for enhancements or totally new ideas altogether.

The library board will use the information to develop that three year strategic plan this year.
